Chapter 1731: Regrouping
Training recruits is a chore, and thankless, but from another point of view, Sun Cai took over this position, and there is no danger to his life, Ye Shikai was the commander of the Chu army, and at most he commanded 200,000 people, Shangguan Jian, Mancang, and Wan Qiyuan were all entrusted with important tasks, and naturally there were many henchmen and generals, and they were all loyal to Ye Shikai, since he "defected" After that, these generals lost their backers, although they were a lot low-key, but Mi Wen would not keep them, and some small leaders were demoted and transferred, if it was some generals with military power, they would be directly assassinated, and replaced by Mi Wen's henchmen, so that she could have complete control over the entire army.
"My lord, the old brothers before us have lost their power and power, and they still have to be people with their tails between their legs every day, if we are targeted by the lord, we will suffer. "The so-called three fires for new officials to take office may be because Ye Shikai's prestige in the army was too great before, so Mi Wen used this vigorous and resolute means.
"Then I'll tell you something. Xue San's face was solemn, "Master Ye has an accident, can you help." ”
"Of course I know that Lord Ye has an accident, not long ago, the lord personally led 30,000 janissaries out of the city, mighty, Linxiang is the hinterland, even the bandits and bandits dare not be here, what is there that requires the lord to lead so many soldiers and horses, it must be to deal with Lord Ye, the next day, the army returned to the city, dragging thousands of corpses, Lord Ye he ......"
"Lord Ye is fine, he is in the official mansion. ”
"What, Commander Xue knows. ”
"Of course, it was me who saw him in person, and Lord Ye was safe and sound. ”
"That's really good, Lord Ye is fine, to be honest, I was frightened at the time, thousands of people died, how terrible the fight should be. ”
"Sun Cai, do you know the current situation of General Shangguan and General Man. ”
"This ...... Commander Xue, please forgive me, I really don't know, one, I'm just a tun commander training new recruits now, and second, this is the lord's Praetorian Guard operation, no one dares to reveal the slightest bit about the results of the battle, and I can't inquire if I want to. ”
"As for the other of our brothers, who are now small officers with the size of sesame mung beans, they are really unable to inquire about the news. ”
"I know that you've done your best. Xue San nodded and said, he had expected Mi Wen to do something to these old brothers, but he didn't expect her to do such a desperate job, perhaps, Ye Shikai's close confidants had long been silently targeted by her, and now as soon as he left, Mi Wen was "killing people according to the list".
"How many of our old brothers are left. Xue San said lightly, what he was referring to was naturally the people who used to be in the squad, those were carefully selected, collecting intelligence, assassination and raids were all good tricks, and he wanted to re-ensnar, so that an intelligence network could be formed.
"After the Battle of Nanyang and the Battle of Bashu, there were not many people left, and now the lord is striking like this, it should be ...... There are twenty or thirty more. ”
"Twenty or thirty, okay, more than I thought. Xue San nodded, but a hint of loss flashed across his face.
"Commander Xue, do you want us to go to General Shangguan and General Man. ”
"Exactly. ”
"That's great, I'm going to gather them now, I'm not sure they're all coming, but these old brothers have been holding their breath. ”51
"Sun Cai, this time is different from the past, if it is done, our ending may not be good, but if it fails, I am afraid that we will all lose our heads. Xue San hesitated for a moment and said a few words coldly, Ye Shikai can no longer be a general, in other words, even if they serve Ye Shikai again now, they will not get their previous military position, but if they fail, under the anger of Mi Wen, their lives will not be guaranteed.
"Haha, Commander Xue, if my grandson is a person who is afraid of death, he will not go on a mission with you before, frankly speaking, I am also very depressed these days, the lord is not a virtuous lord, but Lord Ye is affectionate and righteous, rather than being a small tun chief under her, it is better to fight. ”
............................................................
Twenty miles outside Linxiang City, in the village.
Shangguan Jian, Man Cang and Wan Qiyuan were discussing something in the same room, and there were a few lieutenants and more than two dozen secret guards by their side.
"Shangguan, there's no way for us to wait like this, you hurry up and get an idea. Mancang said suddenly, Shangguan Jian looked sad, on the day of the fierce battle with the Chu army, Ye Shikai was arrested, and the rest of the people were desperate to save each other, but to no avail, the sergeant was also killed and wounded, so far, only these people remained, in addition, He Linghan insisted on going to see Mi Wen, although everyone repeatedly dissuaded her, but still couldn't resist her, so she could only let her go.
"Lao Ye should be there now, I saw it very clearly that day, she asked Lao Ye to take the unconscious Lao Ye back, if he is okay, Mi Wen should place him in the official mansion, where the security is the most high, and Miwen's mansion is also inside, and it is the most difficult for outsiders to enter. ”
"We are so short of men that if we are not careful, we will be doomed. "Shangguan Jian must be cautious, this village does not want to be small, so no one noticed that dozens of outsiders came at once, and Old Lady He was also placed here, but he was in a very bad state recently, clamoring to see He Linghan.
Knock, knock, knock.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door in the house, and everyone subconsciously took out their weapons, if Mi Wen found out their hiding place, this place would definitely be razed to the ground.
"Shangguan, I'm Xue San, open the door quickly. ”
"What, Third Brother Xue. Shangguan Jian walked to the window and glanced at it secretly.
"It's really Xue San, open the door quickly. Shangguan Jian said excitedly, and the secret guard opened the door, and everyone was surprised.
"Third Brother Xue, it's really you, you...... You're alive. Shangguan Jian hammered Xue San's chest hard, and his appearance made everyone's atmosphere much higher.
"Of course, those Qin soldiers can't kill me. Xue San told everyone in detail about his survival, the so-called catastrophe will have a blessing if he does not die, and Xue San's sudden arrival made everyone feel that things had taken a turn for the better.
"Therefore, the top priority is to find where Miss He is, and then find a way to rescue her. Xue San said.
"In Linxiang City, except for the government, the dungeon is the safest, there are sergeants and jailers guarding it, if there is no approval, no one can approach, and the shopkeeper Chen was imprisoned there before. Shangguan Jian analyzed: "It is very likely that my sister-in-law will be imprisoned there." ”
"So what are you waiting for, let's hurry into the city. "The impatient Mancang can't wait.
